Rethinking Leadership in a Complex, Multicultural, and Global Environment
- Used Book in Good Condition
The complexity of the decisions that todayâ€™s higher education leaders faceâ€•as they engage with a diversifying student body, globalization and technological advancesâ€•requires embracing new ways of thinking about leadership.

This book examines the new theories and concepts of leadership that are described in the multidisciplinary literature on leadership, and are being applied in other sectorsâ€•from government to the non-profit and business communitiesâ€•to explore the implications for leaders and leadership programs in higher education.

At a time when the heroic, controlling, and distant leader of the past has given way to a focus on teams, collectives and social change, the contributors to this book ask: What new skills and competencies should leaders and programs be addressing?

The recognition of the interdependence of groups within organizations, and between organizations; of cultural and social differences; and of how technology has sped up decision time and connected people across the globe; have changed the nature of leadership as well as made the process more complex and diffuse.

This book is addressed to anyone developing institutional, regional or national leadership development programs; to aspiring leaders planning to participate in such programs; and to campus leaders concerned with the development and pipeline of emerging leaders. It will be particularly useful for administrators in faculty development offices who are planning and creating workshops in leadership training, and for staff in human resource offices who offer similar training.
